<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>They are still in =
business, at
least they were last week. They're now owned by Solo Connect ( <a

they've
been having some problems but they're still in business. Before the Solo
acquisition they were always real good about posting announcements on =
the site
to clear up any questions about possible service downtime or issues they =
may be
having, it seems that's no longer the case with Solo which is =
frustrating. <br>
<br>
Last week my service was down for over 24 hours, and the mail server was =
going
nuts prior to that so I finally got frustrated and just called Qwest and =
had
them switch my ISP from Revealed to nothing (essentially a Qwest IP =
without
email service or anything else).<br>
